A review by kristenmtan
This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald
2.0
3.5/5 stars (goodreads doesn’t do half so i’ll just round down whoop)
made me think a lot, especially near the end.
i think the main downfall of this novel is that the writing is almost too beautiful. it kept me reading rather than being absorbed into the story.
i failed to truly care about any of the characters.
but it’s a beautifully written book and one that i can see myself re reading in the future.
edit i made it 2.5 stars instead whoops haha
